Lysosomes are known as the suicidal bag of the cell because it is capable of destroying its own cell in which it is present. It contains many hydrolytic enzymes which are responsible for the destruction process. This happens when either the cell is aged or gets infected by foreign agents like any bacteria or virus.

Answer:
Lysosomes are called suicidal bags of the cells. They contain hydrolytic enzymes. If the cell is damaged, the lysosomes undergo autolysis and burst open. This results in the release of those hydrolytic enzymes The released enzymes then digest their own cell and ultimately the cell dies. Hence, they are called as suicidal bags of the cells.
